After 10 years of marriage, my husband was sick and needed 300,000 yuan, and when I saw his balance, I decisively divorced
My name is Li Jia and I am 35 years old. Recalling how my husband Zhang Ming and I met each other to this day, I really remember it vividly. We have been married for 10 years since we fell in love on campus in college, and it can be said that the two of us have gone through the most important stages of our lives. Over the years, we have been adhering to the concept of equality, implementing the system, working separately to earn money, and sharing family expenses equally. Although there are sometimes a few arguments in this mode of getting along, most of the time it is quite harmonious.
Until two months ago, everything was fine. One day, Zhang Ming suddenly told me that he was not feeling well and needed further examination. I didn't realize the seriousness of the situation at the time, but I just advised him to go to the hospital immediately. After the results of the examination came out, the doctor told him that he had liver cancer and needed immediate surgery, and the estimated cost was more than 300,000 yuan. My heart sank, my mind went blank, I didn't expect this to happen.
"300,000 yuan? Where did we get so much money?" I asked anxiously.
"Our savings plus your salary should be enough. Zhang Ming tried his best to comfort me.
I hurried home to check on our deposits. When I opened the online banking, we only had more than 50,000 yuan in our joint account. I panicked in my heart for a while, and began to think wildly: Could it be that where have all our savings gone all these years? We are both moonlight clans, and our living expenses basically depend on the salaries of both parties, so how can we not even make up the cost of the operation? I hurriedly dialed Zhang Ming's phone and told him about the situation.
"How so? I remember we had a lot of money saved some time ago. After listening to my report, Zhang Ming was also stunned.
"Maybe it's been a lot of money spent on recent renovations and tours. I guessed.
"What then? We can't afford to pay for the surgery. Zhang Ming said anxiously.
I was lost in thought, thinking about what to do next. Looking at Zhang Ming's pale face, my mood became heavier and heavier. Neither of us was at a loss for what to do with this huge problem.
Looking at Zhang Ming's anxious expression, I also felt a lot of anxiety in my heart. The operation fee of 300,000 yuan is indeed an astronomical amount for us, and the combined monthly income of the two of us is only a little over 200,000 yuan, where can we afford such high medical expenses?
"Why don't we borrow money from friends and relatives, or take out a loan." Zhang Ming eagerly proposed.
"But you know, our parents weren't very wealthy, and they didn't even have enough of our own savings, so where did we get a line of credit. I said helplessly.
I was silent for a while, then plucked up the courage to say, "Otherwise, let's ask your parents first and see if they can help us." "
Zhang Ming nodded and dialed his parents' phone. I listened as he anxiously explained the situation to his parents, expecting some help. After a while, Zhang Ming's disappointed voice came from the other end of the phone: "My parents are not financially well-off now, and they said that there is indeed no extra money to fund my surgery now." "
I shook his hand and tried to comfort him: "Don't worry, we'll figure it out." Maybe you can apply for Medicaid and see if you can get a loan or something. "
"But loans require collateral and credit, where do we get them? And even if we get the money, the pressure to repay them every month is too great. Zhang Ming shook his head and said.
I was silent, indeed, we really couldn't think of a good way. Both of us are ordinary office workers, with meager savings and no assets to pledge, and bank loans are simply foolish dreams. A thought popped up in my mind, but I didn't know whether to mention it to Zhang Ming.
"No, you listen to me. I quickly explained, "What you need most now is treatment, we can divorce first, so that I can be single in name, apply for some Medicaid programs, or get a loan as soon as possible." Wouldn't it be nice if we got together again when you're cured?"
Zhang Ming was silent, I knew he must be hesitating and tangled. We've been in love for so many years, but now that we're facing such a big problem, I don't know what better way to do it. We really have no other savings and assets, and we can't raise 300,000 yuan for the operation on our own.
"No, it won't!" I hurriedly interrupted him, "You will definitely be able to get through it, and I will be by your side to support you." We have been married for so many years, and our relationship is so deep, how can we give up so easily? I believe that you will definitely be able to overcome the disease, and when the time comes, we will join hands in the palace of marriage again. "
Zhang Ming held my hand, with a hint of hesitation and helplessness in his eyes: "Okay, let's do as you say." I really can't think of any other way. However, you must promise me that no matter what happens, you will always be there for me and accompany me through this difficult time. "
"I promise!" I said solemnly, "You are my dearest person, how could I leave you alone." We have walked through this difficult time together, and there will be a better future waiting for us at that time. "
After speaking, I hugged Zhang Ming tightly and felt his body temperature. I know we're about to face the toughest test of our lives, but if we work together, we can get through it and regain our happiness.
It may have been a difficult decision for us, but I believe it was the best option right now. I will fully support Zhang Ming and accompany him through this torture of illness, and when he recovers, we will definitely regain a happy marriage. Our relationship has stood the test, and I'm sure it's going to work out.
"Depending on your situation, I recommend that you start with a summary divorce, also known as a divorce by agreement. This can save a lot of cumbersome legal procedures and reduce time costs. After completing the agreed divorce, you can also apply for medical assistance, Medicaid and other policy incentives. "
"So, what materials do you need to prepare?" I hurriedly asked.
"No problem, I'll do my best to speed things up for you. You can rest assured that we will do our best to provide you with high-quality and efficient legal services. The staff said with a smile.
I hurriedly went through the relevant procedures and cooperated with the lawyer to quickly advance the divorce process. Although Zhang Ming was a little reluctant, he also understood that this was the only way out for us. With the coordination of the lawyer, we quickly signed the divorce agreement, which clarified the terms of property division and debt assumption.
At the same time that we were completing the divorce procedures, Zhang Ming also began to apply for medical assistance. With our divorce certificate, he was able to obtain medical subsidies from the government smoothly, which eased his financial burden. I also actively cooperated with him to apply for various preferential policies and raise money for his surgery as much as possible.
During this time, I kept an eye on the progress of Zhang Ming's condition. Although we are nominally divorced, our relationship has not changed in the slightest. Every day after work, I would visit him in the hospital and accompany him for chats and walks. Sometimes, I will also help him with some simple household chores to ease his burden.
"Jia, you really don't have to take care of me every day. I know it's not easy for you to be in a difficult situation now. "Once, Zhang Ming said to me with red eyes.
"Fool, you are my most important person, how could I not come to see you? We have been in love for so many years, how can we give up now. I took his hand and said in a firm tone.
"Zhang Ming, listen to me. We divorce just so that you can get Medicaid as soon as possible and reduce your financial pressure. But our relationship has not changed in the slightest, and I will always be by your side to support you until you completely overcome this disease. I stared into his eyes and said earnestly.
After Zhang Ming's condition stabilized, we decided to make up the wedding again. Although we have been divorced for a while, our relationship has never changed in the slightest. These days, I have been by Zhang Ming's side, witnessing his journey from despair to regaining hope. I deeply feel that the love between us can stand the test.
We were all excited as we made the preparations for the resumption of the wedding. We chose a beautiful wedding venue and invited friends and family to come and wish you well. Although our previous savings have long since been depleted, this time, we decided to reach out to our friends and relatives in the hope of getting their help.
"Mom and Dad, we have decided to make up the wedding again, and we hope you can come and attend. I said excitedly to my parents.
"What? Aren't you already divorced? Why are you getting married again?" The parents looked very confused.
"That's right, we divorced before just to help Zhang Ming apply for Medicaid, and now his condition has improved. We are ready to re-enter the marriage hall and hope that you will give us blessings. I explained sincerely.
The parents were silent for a moment, but finally expressed their support for our decision. "It seems that you two have a deep relationship. Now that we've gone through so many hardships, we must celebrate for you. Father said kindly.
"Great, thank you, Mom and Dad! We will definitely prepare for this wedding. "I hugged my parents excitedly.
In the days that followed, we were busy shopping for wedding supplies and designing the wedding process. Friends and family also actively participated in the project and offered us advice. Someone sent us a beautiful wedding dress, and someone booked a photographer and emcee for us. With everyone's help, everything went smoothly for our wedding.
Finally, on a sunny day, Zhang Ming and I re-entered the marriage hall. When I put on a white wedding dress and walked into the venue holding Zhang Ming's hand, my heart was full of happiness and gratitude. Warm applause and blessings from relatives and friends resounded throughout the venue, and we looked at each other and smiled, with deep love in our eyes.
"Jia, I really appreciate you so much. It was you who have always been there for me to support me, and I have been able to get through such difficult days. I swear that no matter what happens in the future, I will cherish our marriage and love you forever. Zhang Ming said sincerely.
"Fool, how can the love between us be so easily defeated? We have been through so much, and I know that our feelings can stand the test. No matter what you encounter in the future, I will always stand by your side and face it with you. I stared into his eyes and said solemnly.
With the blessings of relatives and friends, we exchanged love tokens and made new vows. At this moment, we seem to go back to the time when we met on campus, full of longing and anticipation for the future.
Today, we have entered the middle stage of life. Although the years have left some vicissitudes on our faces, our hearts have never been so young. Together, we write our own chapter of life, and every day is full of hope and passion. I believe that as long as we support each other, we will be able to go further and better.
